RESIDENT EVIL: WELCOME TO RACCOON CITY THOUGHTS

   Video game movies never live up to what the game were, everyone knows this. Yet when you see they are doing a movie for a game you loved, you get excited and want it to be as good as the game. You have a great story and characters. Everything is laid out for you to make a awesome movie. And everyone once in a great while you get a good one, the first Silent Hill for example. This movie...is not one of them.

MAKING POZOLE FOR DINNER FOR THE FIRST TIME

   I am half Mexican and half White and love to cook. I love trying to do recipes of food I have never cooked before. Don't really have a style of cooking, I really like just trying to challenge myself to trying to cook food I love. One of my favorite things to cook is Mexican. One thing I have never made before, but have great memories of my grandma making, is pozole. Now my grandma is still around, but I don't live right next door to her anymore. 

2020...WHAT A YEAR

    Sitting here thinking back about this crazy year of 2020. You never really know what a new year will bring you. You always hope for the best, but life is crazy and loves to throw curve balls at your plans. Hell, I was suppose to have my twentieth high school reunion this year, and that didn't happen. I can only speak for myself, but not all of this past year was bad. There was a lot of good that happen along with the bad during, dare I say it, Corona Virus pandemic. 

WONDER WOMAN 1984 (SPOILERS)

   Finally after all this time because of COVID, we get to watch the second Wonder Woman movie. Thanks to the HBO Max app, I get to anyways. Of course I would rather watch this on the big screen and not my home tv, but cause of the current situations with the theaters it is what it is. 

   I really enjoyed the first Wonder Woman, even though the CGI ending was a little hard to watch. Over all it was a great movie portraying one of the greatest DC Comics characters. I have a lot of thoughts on this long awaited squeal. 

MIKEY (1992) REVIEW

   I remember the first time watching this movie with my cousin when I was ten or eleven at my grandma's house. See back in the day there was something called a "Black Box". Well my cousin Ernie and I use to watch a bunch of movie that would probably shouldn't have been. Mikey was one of the those movies. I was scrolling through on Amazon Prime when I saw it sitting there under the free movies. My eyes lite up when I saw it and knew that I wanted it to be my first blog post after a few months off. 

HAUNT (2019) REVIEW

   I just got done watching Haunt on the Shudder horror app. Haunt is a 2019 movie that is an American slasher film that debut first at the Popcorn Frights Film Festival and later got a premiere at FrightFest over seas. Then finally got a limited release by Momentum Pictures. Directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woords, and had Eli Roth as a producer. All reviews have been mostly positive from critics and audiences. I have been interested in giving it a chance, so when my wife suggested it, I put it on.

INMATE #1: THE RISE OF DANNY TREJO DOCUMENTARY

   I just got done watching the documentary dedicated to the Latino actor Danny Trejo. In the documentary they talk about Danny's life which includes his time as a alcohol/drug user and time in prison. How he overcame the diversity and struggle growing up in his home town of Pomona in Southern California to the star we know today. From armed robber to boxing champ at San Quentin to the being on the big screen. And how he gives back to teach and give people hope in there life.
